Minor correction: Maedhros' red hair (probably a dark red-brown, actually) comes to him ''through'' his mother, but there is no mention of Nerdanel actually having red hair, so it is probably more accurate to say that it comes from his grandfather, Mahtan (who ''did'' have red hair). Seeing as there is actual discussion of hair color in ''Peoples of Middle-earth'', and the red is distinctive enough to bear mentioning, it is reasonable (although I am aware of the logical fallacy) to suppose that Nerdanel's hair was not red. ] 22:32, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC) Minor correction: Maedhros' red hair (probably a dark red-brown, actually) comes to him ''through'' his mother, but there is no mention of Nerdanel actually having red hair, so it is probably more accurate to say that it comes from his grandfather, Mahtan (who ''did'' have red hair).

== Citations not used in summary paragraph? ==

I'm not sure, but I think citations are not used in the summary paragraph. Everything mentioned in the summary paragraph should be repeated later in one of the sections, and referenced at that point. I think! Hence my requests for citations at later points. Still a nice article, but let's get these citations in there! ] 10:24, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Minor correction: Maedhros' red hair (probably a dark red-brown, actually) comes to him through his mother, but there is no mention of Nerdanel actually having red hair, so it is probably more accurate to say that it comes from his grandfather, Mahtan (who did have red hair). Seeing as there is actual discussion of hair color in Peoples of Middle-earth, and the red is distinctive enough to bear mentioning, it is reasonable (although I am aware of the logical fallacy) to suppose that Nerdanel's hair was not red.
